Following quickly after last years debut EP Redevelopment, Modern Yuppies provides a progression with the band enhancing beyond their indie roots by blending their angular guitar work with a more flamboyant sonic vision that cuts through with a modern surrealist twist while embracing a retro feel of Devo or The B-52’s.
Talking about on the shift in direction, singer Will Harrison commented: "Synths and drum machines were already something we were very keen to explore and 2020 provided us with an unexpected amount of free time to experiment. We dialled the disco influences up to the max and totally embraced that 70’s-cop-drama vibe for this pair of stand-alone singles. It feels like a bold declaration of who we are and it definitely gives a clearer taste of where we’re heading for our next EP”.
